Milton Free Public Library is investigating the costs and benefits of joining the New Hampshire state downloadable book consortium. This service allows patrons of the participating library to download audio books onto MP3 systems and e-books onto their e-readers, such as (iPads, Kindles, Nooks and similar devices.

Many libraries in the state already offer this to its patrons. Milton Free Public Library would like to know if it would be a good fit here. Please let us know:

-- Do you own an e-reader or are thinking about getting one?

-- Would you use this service?

-- Are you currently a patron of a library in another town in order to use this service? (And paying extra?).
